Option Strict On disallows late binding

[nev]

I guess I have to post this anew.

I would like to retain Option Strict On in my code but how will I do...

bindingsource.c urrent("firstna me") = "loverboy"

Error: (Same as Title)

I tried...

Ctype(bindingso urce.current("f irstname"), string) = "loverboy"

but it doesn't work.

Help me my friend...

If "Option Strict On" does not allow late binding, doesn't that MEAN that it doesn't allow late binding. Which is what you're doing right there yes?
Sounds kind of silly when you say out.

Can you set those values BEFORE they make it into your bindingsource?
